We are looking for a Lead Software Engineer to join our team to build performant, mobile-first web applications, and create best-in-class digital experiences for Enthusiast and Wellness magazine brands, including Runner’s World, OprahDaily, and Men’s Health. Our team of engineers, product managers, data scientists, and designers build a suite of products to lead the way in shaping and managing the future of publishing. You'll join a diverse, supportive community of engineers who are creating a modern content technology stack - built from the ground up - to give our clients and users tools that enable them to tell amazing stories and run their businesses more effectively. We’re using modern web technologies to do this, like JavaScript, Node.js, GraphQL, React and Python. We’re building an open, service-oriented platform driven by APIs, and believe in crafting simple, elegant solutions to complex technological and product problems. Our platform is built on AWS and Kubernetes with deployments automated through Slack bots. Hearst Magazines’ portfolio of more than 30 iconic brands in the U.S.—including Cosmopolitan, ELLE, Esquire, Good Housekeeping, Harper’s BAZAAR, and Popular Mechanics — inspires, entertains, and builds new and bold experiences for an engaged and growing audience across digital, video, social and print, reaching nearly 130 million readers and site visitors each month. With sophisticated content creation, cutting-edge technology, and industry-leading data capabilities, we make media and products that move people across all platforms. We are a global media company that publishes nearly 200 magazine editions and 175 websites around the world—and together, we are shaping what’s next.
